Another week slumps to its end, and we look forward to three whole days away from this stifling dump - thanks to May Day, we have Monday off!
But first, another celebration...
Sharing a birthday with such unlikely compatriots as Bing Crosby, Mary Astor, Richard D'Oyly Carte, Henry Cooper, Mary Hopkin, Golda Meir, Sandi Toksvig, Ben Elton, Betty Comden and James Brown, one Francesco Stephen Castelluccio blows out 85 candles on his cake today.
Whoooooo..?
Better known, of course, as Mr Frankie Valli, his was [and still is - we saw him on stage at Proms in the Park in 2016 (when the event was still good - we're not even booking this year, after last year's debacle)] a long and enviable musical career, topped-off quite neatly during the late '70s with this Bee Gees-penned number - here given some much-needed funky va-va-voom, courtesy of The Commodores!
Never, in the field of human performance, has so much been owed, by manufacturers of rhinestones everywhere, to so few. Thank Disco It's Friday!
Have a great (Bank Holiday) weekend!
